People are being urged to keep to official routes along the coast path and take care as the recent heavy rain will have made the path muddy and slippery in places.

Dorset Police are warning that landslides often take place after wet weather as there is a delay in the rainwater falling and soaking into the ground. Cliffs and areas that have clays at the base and porous sandstone or limestone at the top are prone to landslides because the water soaks down through the cliff top but cannot pass through the clay.

Put up all the warning signs, etc. to cover the whole beach, but at the end of the day it's still a case of 'You cannot educate pork'. You will still get the Morons and Brain Dead ignoring the signs, then expect other people to put their lives at risk to rescue them.

It is remarkable that this overhang has lasted as long as this. It has been looking very unsteady for many months.

I'm glad the overhand has gone. I hate seeing visitors with young children walking under the overhangs after a lot of rain. So many ignore all warning signs.
